Right at this very moment I'm writing this message, I'm at a point at this contract (where I've been since January) where I have just completed 6 reports today and have only 6 more to go before the project list for reports is considered complete.
This project has taken a huge toll on me. Rich has been so great at keeping me grounded. I wasn't planning on working this much or this hard. The routine migraines came back and all. Life shouldn't be like this.
Now I can see the end. I'm so excited. Early Thursday morning (and when I say early, I mean EARLY) I'll be heading out with my mom, brother, sister-in-law, niece and nephew for a cross-province drive to visit my father's side of the family. We're going to Kimberley BC. My mom and brother are only staying up until Tuesday (brother has to work) but we'll be staying until the following Sunday. We're going to be camping on Kootenay Lake (I think it's that lake). My nephew is going to have a blast I know it.
We're so looking forward to seeing my aunt, cousins and kids and my grandmother. Unfortunately, Rich has to work but I'm taking up toys etc... that he picked out for the kids. :)
Well, I guess I'd better make some more progress on those last 6 reports. Signing off.

Can you believe it, I'm now being PAID to blog?
Work related of course but my former employer is paying me to be a "Subject Matter Expert" out in the virtual world. Check out my "blog" but we're not supposed to use that word. We're supposed to say "news". OK then, please check out my news. I'm up on a forum there too. My pic shows up and everything. Just look for the Crystal Reports stuff.
Will work EVER end?
Tomorrow was supposed to be my last day here. Well, now it looks like Monday.
Actually last Friday, my boss (who is on vacation himself this week) told the guys in Santa Barbara that we're working for that I can do this until the 2nd of Aug. Sneaky man! He just asked me when I was planning on taking off for my vacation to the Interior. How was I to know he would use it against me.
I've created (and am maintaining) 46 in the last 3 days. That averages to 1 every 80 minutes or something like that. ICK! I'm drinking from a reporting FIREHOSE!!!
